The gate of the defensive wall of Xingchang County slowly opened, and the legions poured out like a tide. The leader turned out to be the elite of the 5,000 militia regiment led by Dugu Junjie himself.

At the same time, Zhang Han took the place of Dugu Junjie and ordered the No. 5 gun to attack at an elevation angle of nearly 76 degrees. The shells rushed up several kilometers into the air and then began to fall. Eventually, it fell less than a kilometer from the city wall.

"Boom!"

The flames soared into the sky, and the power of the explosion made everyone on the city wall faintly feel the ground trembling under their feet.

At close range, Gu Xingdong, the county guard, gasped, he saw that within a radius of 100 meters, it was instantly emptied, and he saw countless stumps and broken arms flying up within a radius of more than 20 meters. He saw a cloud of smoke billowing into the air.

The soldiers of the Kingdom of Jinyang were even more stunned. The roar was so loud that it made the soul tremble.

Dugu Junjie took the opportunity to roar: "The country of Jinyang is treacherous, and God has rewarded the power of the thunder god of the country of Qixia, and Sima Zhen has been punished by heaven!"

Kill, those who surrender do not kill!"

Although Dugu Junjie is only in the late stage of the Jindan period, he has two Yuan Infant stage protectors around him. Five thousand elites tore through the front of the Kingdom of Jinyang like knives and quickly cut through the enemy's army, while the rear army poured in like a tidal wave, surrounding, slashing, or capturing the stunned advance of the Kingdom of Jinyang.

The cannonballs above his head kept falling, although there was only one artillery cannon covering the army, but this was enough to paralyze the army of the country of Jinyang and panic.

The artillery shells, under the command of Zhang Han, specially attacked places with many people, places with generals' flags, etc. As soon as you see a place where a neat queue has formed, or a battle formation has formed, you should immediately take special care of it.

In the face of this sudden appearance of artillery, the army of the Kingdom of Jinyang was in chaos, and most of them lost their fighting spirit. In fact, the greatest power of artillery is not lethality, but shock and deterrence.

The explosion that made the earth tremble, the gunpowder smoke that rose into the sky, the loud sound like thunder sweeping the ground, coupled with Dugu Junjie's slogan, etc., completely confused the army of the country of Jinyang.

In particular, Sima Zhen has not issued an order until now, so that some determined generals have to start organizing a retreat.

However, under the leadership of Dugu Junjie, the country of Qixia became more and more courageous, and the rest of the generals in the rear were not to be outdone, roaring and commanding the team to charge.

Under the cover of the artillery one after another, everyone rushed to the hill where Sima Zhen was before.

At this time, the mountain was already potholed, full of pungent smells, and miserable stumps and broken arms.

And with this as the boundary, the Yuan Infant Master of the Ocean Group is fighting against the Yuan Infant Master of the Kingdom of Jinyang. The Yuan Infant Stage masters of the Land of Qixia shouted excitedly one by one in a set of steel weapons and armor, while the Yuan Infant Stage masters of the Kingdom of Jinyang had to fight and retreat to buy time for the army.

The war lasted until sunset, and the highlands that once belonged to the country of Jinyang have now become the country of Qixia.

The soldiers shouted slogans, dragged the three new guns to the top of the hill, and immediately shelled the retreating enemy troops, but under the command of Dugu Junjie, the attack range of the new artillery was limited to the limit distance of 10 kilometers to 15 kilometers, and it was not yet time to use it.

Zhang Hao also came to the top of the mountain, watching the army at the foot of the mountain surging like an ocean, and his heart was very excited. In the war that just ended, the country of Qixia won a great victory, capturing and eliminating more than 80,000 troops of the country of Jinyang in one go, which was an unprecedented victory.

Not only that, but the previous bombardment seemed to have put the commander of the country of Jinyang in one pot. To this day, the army of the Kingdom of Jinyang is still retreating overnight, leaving behind a large amount of baggage.

"Have you won?" Gu Xingdong, the county guard of Xingchang County, was still a little flustered.

Zhang Hao was more sensible, he looked away: "It can only be said to be a temporary victory." The roots of the Kingdom of Jinyang have not been damaged. Also, although the artillery temporarily frightened the other side, it was only temporary.

We don't have enough artillery, and the other side will easily find a way to crack it.

Judging by the current situation, artillery can only be regarded as a miracle soldier. And we brought a total of 900 shells this time, and we have already used up more than 300 shells just now. ”

The excitement on Gu Xingdong's face gradually disappeared.

Dugu Junjie came to Zhang Hao's side, "Young master, the enemy may come to rob the camp tonight."

If I were the other party's general, whether it was the chief general or the deputy general, as long as there was someone in charge, I would definitely come to find out tonight. If you can get a cannon or get a good victory, even if you are defeated, you will have an explanation when you go back!

And we can't be sure that the opposing manager will die, maybe only lightly injured, and we have to be prepared.

Not only us, but also Xinglin Hall, and even the City Lord's Mansion, all need to make corresponding preparations. ”

Zhang Hao nodded: "Then, let's let everyone set a few more traps tonight." ”

Half an hour later, Dugu Junjie came to report: "Young master, the trapped immortal array has been arranged here, and the formation base made of steel is used to ensure that they can't come and go." Xinglin Hall and the City Lord's Mansion also made the necessary protection.

In addition, in order to ensure that the enemy would definitely come here, I was going to hold a bonfire dinner on the top of the hill, where we would celebrate with a carnival and place the artillery in the most prominent position.

However, there are certain risks associated with doing so. ”

Zhang Hao nodded, the war must bear the risk, as long as Dugu Junjie thinks it is okay, Zhang Hao will support it.

Zhang Hao doesn't particularly care about military matters, because Zhang Hao knows very well - it's okay for him to be an afterthought for specific military affairs, but what he needs on the battlefield is Zhuge Liang in advance!

Dugu Junjie discussed with Zhou Shuhai, Gu Xingdong and others, and soon the whole army was excited. In the evening, not only to celebrate, but also to visit the artillery, and to reward the outstanding achievements of the day next to the artillery!

............

Fifty miles away, Sima Zhen suddenly roared and sat up suddenly, and then he felt a hot whole body, both inside and outside the body, the pain was unbearable. It seems that all over the body is peeled and cramped, and the bone is knocked and the marrow is sucked. The soul seems to be twitching.

In his mouth, he could taste the taste of pills such as the Nourishing Divine Pill, the Pure Pill, and the Heart Protecting Pill, and his head was groggy, and there was a sharp buzz constantly circling in his mind, and he always felt that the heavens and the earth were still spinning.

I can't lift the slightest strength up and down.

The guards around him exclaimed excitedly: "The big handsome is awake, the big guy is awake!"

In a short time, more than a dozen generals gathered around Sima Zhen, but most of these generals were former middle-level generals, and the high-level generals were all playing 'makeup' parties one by one - it looked too miserable.
